This is a really shocking video. I think it's the only example of Hitler speaking in English, that I've ever seen. I need to do some research into the occasion and the reason for his taking the time to give this speech in a language other than his own, but his message is pretty clear. He's "moving on up" and then details the targets for his move. The bit where he says that they (the Nazis) finally got their "piece of the pie", reminded me of Daniel Day Lewis's milkshake speech from "There Will Be Blood." You can just see the crazy, fervor in Hitler's eyes. Absolutely chilling.
You ABSOLUTELY have to watch this. With sound. Thank me later.
Cheers,
Mr.B

The actual video portion of this is from a doc called Triumph of the Will (1935). Its a pro nazi propaganda thing, and supposedly if you disassociate yourself from your knowledge of history and what the Nazi's did, it is chillingly effective.
Here's Eberts review http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080626/REVIEWS08/911177318/1004
No Greg.
It's actually from "The Jeffersons" you fucking racist.
Christ, the degenerates that I run with.
Fuck you, Hitler-Lover!
Deeply Ashamed,

Is it bad that I laughed at Hitler...
No.
It would only be bad if you masturbated to Hitler.
Everything else is within accepted parameters. He's dead. Fuck im.
Cheers,
Mr.B
(Edited to not be bad anymore.)
